Sir Patrick Vallance is stepping down as the Govt's Chief Scientific Officer. The Daily Sceptic looks back at his record over the past two-and-a-half years and it’s not great. If only we'd had Anders Tegnell instead.

Susan Michie, a member of the Communist Party of Great Britain and a leading participant in SAGE's SP-1 group, has been promoted to Chair of the WHO’s nudge unit.

Communist SAGE advisor Susan Michie has warned that the leaderless Tories will 'sit on their hands' and 'let Covid rip'. If by that she means another lockdown won't be imposed in the near future, then thank God for that.

The UK relied too much on "very scary" SAGE models to decide on lockdowns, according to the man behind some of those very projections who repeatedly called for longer lockdowns.

During the last two years, the Government and SAGE subjected us to a deliberate attempt to generate massive levels of societal anxiety, and this will turn out to be a major health problem in the years ahead.

We're publishing a review on the Daily Sceptic of Mark Woolhouse's book The Year the World Went Mad by Guy de la Bédoyère. He thinks it's worth reading, although he said many of the things Woolhouse says two years ago.

Senior epidemiologist and Government coronavirus adviser Professor Mark Woolhouse claims he was told to "correct" his views after he criticised what he thought was an "implausible" graph shown at an official briefing.

SAGE has been stood down in a clear sign that the Government believes the Covid crisis is over. Good to see the back of those guys, who had a special knack for using bad predictions to push us into unnecessary lockdowns.

A SAGE scientist has claimed that the case for masks became "hugely stronger" when we learned that Covid spreads via airborne particles. But this doesn't make sense, and it's the opposite of what Fauci once said.

Professor Mark Woolhouse, a member of the SAGE modelling team, has written a mea culpa in which he says the Government made a series of catastrophic mistakes in 2020 and the lockdown sceptics were basically right.
